Capital Equipment - equipment in addrtion lo that normally provided by the NHS. Achlevements and Performance of the Charitable Funds During the year, the designated funds continued to support a wide range of Charitable and health related activities benefiting both patients and staff. To fulfil the charitable aims and objectives, the strategy of the South Staffordshire Community and Mental Health Charilable Fund is to support its related constituent bodies by providing funds to benefil patients by purchasing supplementary and complimentary equipment or services for which the related NHS organisation are unable to provide funding through exchequer sources. For example, charitable funds were used to purchase equipment to complement what h8d already been provided for at various hospital siles. The charity does not actively fundraise and relies upon the generosty of the patients and their relatives and other donors who are familiar with or have experienced the care of the participating NHS Trusts or who are sympathetic and generous in Iheir support to their local NHS service. In line with the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016 section 13 the charily would like to make il clear that no person is employed by the charity to carry out its activities for the purpose of fundraising as previously stated the charity does not actively fundraise and relies UFX)n the generosity of the patients and their relatives and other donors. Therefore, there is no undertaking to be bound by any voluntary scheme for regulaling fund-raising, or any voluntary standard of fund raising in respect of activities on behalf of the charity, or failure to comply with the scheme or any tnonitoring of compl8ints or protection of vulnerable people and other members of the public in connection with such activities for the activity.

Auditor's responsibiliti￿ for the audlt of the financlal statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordan￿ with regulations mad6 under section 154 of that Act. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finanual statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran is a high l&vèl of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordan￿ with ISAS {UKI will always detect a material misststement when it exists. Misstaternents can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to Influen￿ the economic decisions of us&rs taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, incl(tding fraud, are instsnces of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our sponsibililies, outlined above. to deteGI m8terial misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our proGedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risk5 of matsrial misstslemenl in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-complianc8 With laws and regulations, was as follows.. the senior statutory auditor ensured that the engagement team collectFvely had the appropriate competen(£, cspabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliancE with applicable laws and ￿gulatiOns.. we identified the laws and regulations applicable lo the charity through discussions with directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experien¢e ofthe Charity sector," we focused on specific18ws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial Statements or the operations of the charity, including the financial reporting legislation. Charit185 Act 2011, taxation legislation, anti-bribery, employment, and environmental and he2￿h and safety legislation, we ass85sed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence,. and identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. We assessed the susceptibility of the charity'5 financial slatemenls to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by.. making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual. suspected and alleged fraud,. and consid6rinu th8 internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. To address the rtsk of fr8ud through management bias and override of controls, we= perfomed analytical procsdur&s lo identify any unusual or unexpsctèd relationships,. tested journal entries to identify unususl transactions.. assessed whether judgements and assumptions rnade in determining the accounting estimates set o(rt in note 1 werè indicative of potential bi8s', and invesligaled the rab'onale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulation5, W8 designed proGedures which included, but were not limited lo= agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation., reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with gov&manc£', enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims- and reviewing ¢orrespondence with HMRC, relevant regulalors and the charity's legal advisors. 10

SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE COMMUMITY & MENTAL HEALTH CHARITABLE FUNID AND OTHER RELATED CHARITIES REGISTRATION NO. 1061006 Because of the inherent lirnitalions of an audit, there is a risk that we wtll not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material fflisslalement in the finanaal ststements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, 8$ we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compli8nce. The risk is also great8T regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rethor than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentgtion.

South Staffordshire Community Mental Health Charitable Fund and Other Related Charities Registration Number 1061006 South Stsffordshire Community Mental Health Charitable Fund and Other Related Charits'es Registration Number 1061006 Incoming Resources from Investments The incoming resources receivable from Ihe investments are distributed across the funds, apportioned on the size of the fund. Expenditure All expenditure is accounted for on an accnjals basis and has been ¢la55ified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the Category. All expenditure is recognised oncè there is a legal or constructive oblig3tion to make payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Grants are only made lo related or third party NHS bodies and non NHS bodies in furtherance of the Gharitable objectives of the funds. A liabilÉty for such grants is recognised when approval has been given by the Tfuslees. Those NHS bodies which have nominated representatives have full knowledge ofthe plans of the Trustees, therefore a grant approval is taken to constitute a firm intention of psymenl which has been communicated to the participating NHS body, and so a liabiliiy is recognised. Contractual ariangements are recognised as goods or setvices are supplied. Irrecoverable VAT I￿es0verable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended forwhich it was incurred. Allocation of Overhead and Support Costs Overhead and support costs have been allocated between Charitable Activities and Governance Costs. Costs which are not wholly attributable to an expenditure category have been apportioned. The analysis of oveihead and support costs and the bases of apportionment spplied are shown in note 3. Where costs are shared by two or more charitable activities. SUPPOrt costs have been apportioned between categories, for example financial administralion costs, on the basis ofthe fund balance within the accounting period for each category af charitable activity and this is analysed in note 4. Charitsble Activitiès Costs of charitable activÉties comprise all Costs incurred in the pursuit of the chantsble objects of the charity. These ¢osls, where not wholly attributable. are apportioned between categories of the ¢haritable expenditure in addition to the direct costs. The total costs of each category of charitable expenditure therefore include support costs and an apportionment of overheads, as shown in note 4. Governance Costs Goveman¢e costs comprise all costs attributable to ensuring the public accountability of the ¢harity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit together with an apportionment of overhead and supportcosts.
